the main thing is that VS televised fashion show has a certain target market and they use a certain type of model to appeal to that target market. Tyra with her Harvard MBA and a lifetime of modeling experience & tv production knows this so that is why I dont think that she would have even requested to be in the show.

As an Admirer of models, models unfortunately have expiration dates. It's just how it is. Her career has been spotless and larger than any of the current models can aspire to have. She's a trailblazer. This is not a loss for her.

why would u want to be a VS Angel at 40 anyways? U were there during the heyday. be grateful because now VS Angels are played IMO.

well, to show she's still sexy and beautiful at 40 and to swing sales of the demographic. i find it short sighted that vs didn't want to grow with and redefine the generation that really established their brand. they pulled a typical move and went younger with the pink launch and it's to the point (has been for years) that teenagers are shopping in their stores.

to the bolded: i agree. vs quality, concept and product isn't anywhere near where it used to be. it used to be an alluring and sophisticated version (in a sense) of FoH. now? tacky.

however, i wonder if heidi wanted to do it, would vs break their necks to make it happen? cause age aside, they sure did cling to her for dear life to push the body by victoria line.

Indeed. In it's early days I thought they were going to eventually go for a cheaper version of LaPerla or Agent Provocateur with it's extreme boudoir look. Their image (and quality for somethings) went down hill when they added Pink.

Don't get me wrong Pink is a good idea but...it changes the overall look of your Brand. Folks who can shop Delia's started to also shop VS. Again no shade to the youngsters. As a company I understand gettin paid but ...if I had the capital I would have done that differently.

I can't call it for Heidi. Well...honestly...i'm not sure Heidi would do it. She seems to have moved on. She got her shows and endorsements. *shrugs*
